    So 2-3 months at the most, yeah some of the meat I threw out yesterday had freezer burn, not very nice...

    I reckon up to about 6 months in the deep freeze - if you reheat in a covered oven dish. I guess that would be less in an upright freezer that you're opening all the time so 2-3 months. I label all mine with the date its made so never any guessing.

    Cool thanks MD, I just have to remember to label everything, will be good to have a few meals sitting away for those nights we don't feel like cooking

    Yeah, they don't always last very long here either. So nice just to drag something out and plop it in the oven. Reminds me we should have a tuna mornay some time soon. Right time of year for it now!
